My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Mary Shelley is a sweet, friendly rabbit who is full of curiosity! She loves to explore and will let you know when she's happy by doing epic binkies. (If you aren't familiar with the term, a "binky is when a rabbit jumps and twists high in the air when they're very content.) When she isn't doing acrobatics and sprinting around the house, she'll flop down on her side with her feet out and ask for pets.

Mary was in a foster home recently, and they reported that she was very clean and neat. They were new to fostering rabbits and found she was very easy to care for. She did very well with children who were taught how to gently interact with rabbits. Mary can startle and hide if she gets scared, which is typical of a rabbit since they're prey animals. Her foster shared that her normal routine was breakfast, run around, sleep, run around, dinner, run around, sleep, repeat. They said, "Mary Shelley is very lovable, curious, energetic, and fun to play with!

Mary Shelley is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated against RHDV2 (vaccine needs to be administered annually). House Rabbit Society recommends all rabbits see a rabbit-savvy veterinarian once a year.
